Critique my registry?

BarnStarBarnStar
in Parenting after a Loss

DH and I went to Target today to start on our registry, now that we know for sure it's a girl. I feel like we went a little overboard with some stuff like blankets, but I think we're just excited, LOL 

Anyone want to take a look and see what we might have missed? We already have our stroller/car seat and PNPs. And a friend is giving us a swing and bathtub. Also, any reviews on anything we registered for that we might want to reconsider? I felt kinda clueless on some stuff. TIA.

    I would possibly add more washcloths and towels.  I only saw a few and we use a lot of washcloths.  Also, I don't know if target carries them but we love the sleep sacks (ours are from BRU) for our DS to sleep in.  Since blankets aren't safe for the crib these are awesome.  I also didn't see any diapers,wipes?  What about a diaper bag?  Ok, I will stop being annoying now.  I think you did great plus I see you wrote that it was a start so with that being said you are off to an awesome start.  Hope that helps.

    Looks pretty good to me.  Do you have a bouncer on there? My dd loves it and it is sometimes the only thing that soothes her.  II think our diaper champ is a waste of money (luckily it was bought on the registry) and next time would just get a regular trash can.  It does not hide the poopy diapers that well so we throw them out seperately.  I like having a lot of blankets so I do not think you went overboard!

    I also second washclothes.  We use these a lot to wipe off her face and with baths.

    I am awful at critiques, but we had the Am. Red Cross baby kit too, and we hated it. The nose sucker is the worst--we ended up getting a kit with a blue bulb nose sucker in it.  The droppers in the ARC one were terrible quality too, and I am very easy to please.

      Did they have another brand there?  You might want to check it out. 

    I love the rest of the stuff, but I have never made a baby registry so I am bad at critiquing overall.  And LOL- you certainly have plenty of blankies, but they are so cute, how can you resist...Much love, Jill

    I think it looks good. Like pp- do you want a bouncy chair? LO uses his almost everyday.

    Depending on the weather-- we got a lot of short sleeve onsies- and nothing to put over them. To cold for LO right now.

    we chose the diaper champ over the genie because the champ uses regular trash bags. 

    how about a swing, bouncer, exersaucer, playmat?

    i bought the mittens and never used them. 

    hats...definitely get some hats.

    ditto the others on more washcloths

    we use cloth diapers as burp cloths.  can't have enough of those.

    i love the side snap shirts instead of onesies because dd hates things being put over her head at this point.

    do you have a sling?

    diaper bag?

    diapers, wipes?

    breast pump if you are bf'ing?
